I really feel for you guys, as it's a lot cooler in Scotland. I know it's to be extremely hot where you are over the next few days.
The hottest we had it was 30 degrees. Master Harvey had a cool area in his cage which he would come out to cool down at certain times of the day, he also used his ceramic flowerpot which I chilled in cold water. I also increased his veggie intake so he was keeping himself hydrated. I also gave him small amounts of romaine lettuce, spinach leafs and baby chard - I would spray them with a mist of water.
I'm so proud of him, how he coped and his routine. I also had 2 tower fans with different settings.
